This was our last night at Malang. Of course, our stay would not be complete without a visit to the Inggil Museum Resto. There we learned some history while eating delicious foods.

Before our scrumptious dinner was served, I roamed around looking at vintage cassettes and old tables, as well as photographs of old buildings in Malang. It was not only my desire for food that was satisfied but my eyes too, looking at the antiques.

​The place had warm, classic, Javanese atmosphere. The restaurant’s interiors offered tables and wooden benches for sitting. The floor had gray tiles, while the wall was made of bamboo. A photograph of Mt. Arjuna hanged over the wall.

While waiting for our food to be served, performers of traditional dance and music took to the stage. Everyone was enjoying the performance. Others took to taking pictures while uploading through their phones and tablets. The place had WiFi Hotspot with great connection.

A staff told me that the owner of this restaurant is the son of a former mayor of Malang who likes to collect antiques and old currencies, posters of old days and traditional masks.

After being around taking photographs, I went back to my table. Food was already being served. They were serving Javanese cuisine. I ate ayam bakar and fried shrimps with avocado juice. The food was very tasty.

I was surprised because I thought the food would be expensive. It turns out I was wrong. ​​

Vintage cassettes

The time was very short. I’m thinking to visit it again so I saved their address, phone and fax numbers. Check it below in case you want to go too.Inggil Museum RestoJl. Gajahmada 4 Malang City / KlojenIndonesiaTel: (0341) 332110Fax: (0341) 712026

The place is not far from the new city, just behind City Hall and opposite the Hotel Malang. I am expecting more visits here, and will accept the invitation of the Ministry of Tourism Indonesia again for another Media Familiarization Trip.
